18- roses -from “my life's project” series
Motherhood/Femme Maison/Um.Emm
Curatorial proposal by Mayrav S Fisher
“I didn’t come out of your ribcage; rather you came out of my Vagina.” Antonymous
A group exhibition featuring 18 female israeli artists identifying, exploring ideas, experiences and reflections of motherhood, home making, and the work of Louise Bourgeois who often explored the idea of motherhood and homemaking.
The curatorial process also honors Louise Bourgeois, we come together on a regular basis, sharing works, thoughts and reflections. 2 hours of zoom sharing and reflecting on womanhood, daughterhood, motherhood and life in general.
“the project of my life”
First thought that came to mind was that my “motherhood identity” is much stronger than my identity as an artist.
“the project of my life” is a series in which I stage physical ceremonies I often have with my kids (already 14/18), sometimes slightly excessive. Our physical language is the most visible characteristic of my relationship with my children.
I am trying to convey the necessity I have for physical contact with my children, one that I wish to satisfy, goes without saying, a different need, but in a certain sense parallel to its basic cal for sexual satisfaction.
